Chapter 8 Distress
Although he had never learned horsemanship, with the blessing of his strengthened body and the guidance of Front, Alan quickly mastered the art of horseback riding.
"Even if there is no trace of monster activity around, you have to open your eyes to observe your surroundings from time to time, just in case. ”
"Heart's eye?"
"It's the eye you built with your magic that can see the nature of the world, as long as it's an object with a monster, you can easily see it. ”
Alan tried again, and in just a moment, the black world before his eyes reappeared.
It was black, as if it were at the bottom of the sea, and there was no light.
Seeing that there was no movement around him, Alan closed his eyes and continued on his way.
Although it is a beautiful and pleasant thing to ride a horse and gallop in this vast wilderness that is almost impossible to see in a previous life, it will be tired of watching it for a long time.
"Can you tell me how monsters are formed?"
"Monsters are monsters infected by magic, they are filled with dirty magic and desires, and they only act according to their instincts, and their most primitive instincts are to kill and eat. ”
"By the way, I must remind you that you must not be soft when dealing with monsters. Even if they show their original appearance, they will definitely be killed. This is the iron rule of magicians, and it is also the mission and responsibility that magicians must obey. ”
"This is, the evil of necessity. ”
Alan rode his horse, but his heart was reminiscing about Front's words.
Suddenly, the pace of the horse, which had been galloping, gradually slowed down.
The horse's nose kept puffing, its hooves clutching the ground, and Alan knew something was wrong, even if he was sluggish.
Opening his eyes, Allen's gaze swept around.
Four red silhouettes appeared in his field of vision, rapidly approaching this direction.
Alan took out the fragment of the axe he had taken from Old Oak from his sacrificial bag and held it tightly in his right hand.
Driving the magic in his right arm, instilling it all into the blade, a huge axe appeared in Allen's right hand in the blink of an eye.
The handle of the axe was made of steel, and the blade was so sharp that it shone with silver.
"What's wrong?"
Feeling the abnormal movement of the magic in his right arm, Frant hurriedly asked.
"I've met a monster. ”
At this moment, the four outlines had already come to Allen.
Four goblins composed of countless mice, bloody saliva from the corners of their mouths from time to time, and blood-red eyes stared at the surrounded Allen, as if they were looking at meat on a cutting board.
Even with the drum beating in his heart, Allen still chose to take the initiative.
The great axe was nimble in his hand, and in just an instant, the flickering silver light had reached the top of the nearest goblin.
Before the goblin could react, the blade of the axe had already been plunged into its head.
One plug and one pull, and suddenly brought up dozens of mouse corpses.
As the dozens of mouse carcasses flew out, a man-tall goblin fell down with a bang, bleeding black blood.
The other three goblins did not stop because of the death of their companion, and they grabbed the ground with their hind legs at the same time as Allen's movements, raising their sharp claws that could easily open their stomachs, and flew in Allen's direction.
Alan rolled and narrowly avoided the combined pounce of the three goblins.
Before they could hit the ground, Allen's axe was already slashing towards the rearmost one.
The sharp axe cut through the goblin's hind legs, sending out a trail of black blood.
Listening to the deafening wail of rats, Eren ignored the incapacitated goblin and turned towards the other two goblins.
"Snort"
A sound of metal grinding sounded.
Allen's great axe parryed the last goblin's claw strike, and he kicked the goblin in the body while the goblin was unstable, and then slashed at its head with an axe.
Glancing at the goblin head rolling on the ground, still with red eyes open, Eren dropped the axe and sat down on the ground, gasping for air.
It didn't take long for the axe to shrink back to its original fragments.
Looking at the four corpses lying around and volatilizing in the air, even if the whole body was still powerless, Allen still wanted to cheer for himself.
If he hadn't inherited Front's combat experience, he probably wouldn't have been able to handle even one, let alone face four of these terrifying monsters at the same time.
Glancing at the dim fragment of the axe in his hand, Eren tucked it into his close-fitting sacrificial pouch and barely stood up.
Dragging his heavy body, he walked over to the nearest corpse and focused on the rats that were struggling to breathe.
With a creepy wail, the rats' bodies exploded, and a gas that could not be easily observed with the naked eye swallowed into Allen's body with the mouth of the demon.
After Allen concocted the same method and sacrificed the remaining three goblins together, he couldn't help but stretch his waist as he felt his rejuvenated body and fully awakened mind.
"It's so comfortable......"
Feeling the magic gradually filling his right arm, Alan couldn't help but admire.
"Sacrifice not only strengthens your body, but also makes your magic stronger and more refined, even if it is the same sacrifice, the effect of different magic magicians will be very different. ”
Feeling more magic pouring into his right arm, Frante spoke.
"It seems that you have become familiar with combat. ”
When Frante mentioned this, Alan found that his fighting skills were indeed much more proficient than in the first battle.
"Will your combat experience be more thoroughly fused by me over time?"
"Indeed, for ordinary magicians, when they fuse their combat experience, the memories and emotions of the sacrifice will also be more thoroughly integrated. ”
At this time, the magician's original memory may be confused with the sacrifice, leading to cognitive confusion, and even taking himself as a sacrifice is not uncommon. ”
"I don't know why you're so special, but if your sacrifice isn't affected by the sacrifice, you're going to be a terrifying being, or even that ...... A legendary magician who saved the world. ”
Listening to Frank's words in his head, Alan didn't know what to say.
Now he is difficult to protect himself in this extremely dangerous world, and saving the world or something is too far away from him.
Opening the magic scroll he had taken from Old Oak earlier, and looking at the map above, the place where Eren was located was already very close to the target village, Gul Village.
Seeing that the horse was frightened, Alan did not ride the horse again, but led the horse and hurried on foot in the direction of the village of Gul.
